Tour may claim that with his words, but apparently his behavior reveals that he doesn’t want that, because his response to such corrections is the rather insane idea that he’s suddenly being persecuted and threated with extortion.
Tour may like to think of himself as a person who will change his mind when offered a correction. But his behavior reveals something else.
His basic complaint is that the public is being deceived into believing that there is progress in the field of origin of life, whereas in fact, there’s hardly any progress at all.

So in this context his complaint about the Nature article is exactly the thing he was looking for.
In what way is this article decieving anyone? Please be very specific. Point out what sentence contains a falsehood.

Uhh yes he literally did say that. He said explicitly that it was part of the primary literature, when it is in fact not, and he accused the author of lying.
